come its advocate. Some of them wished to know whether be was prepared to say any thing on the subject of the ballot. All that he had heretofore said or done had shown that he had been unfavourable to it, and from conviction he was still not disposed to vote in favour of it.—(Cheers and hisses.) They asked for secret voting at a time that they were calling out for publicity on every other subject. They asked that the votes of their represen tatives should be made public. He considered that he had as good a right to know who voted for him, as they had to know how he voted in the House of Commons. If they wanted the Ballot, petition for it, and call upon the Legisla ture to grant it.—( Will you support it ?) He would be in his place in the House, and either to oppose and support it, as its necessity should be established or otherwise. The Hon. Gentleman then said that the question of Irish Cor poration Reform had been most unjustly disposed of by a majority in the House of Peers. If the present Ministry remained in office, they would feel it incumbent on them to bring that measure rgain before Parliament at the next Ses sion. He should feel it his duty to support it, and give to their Irish brethren the same municipal privileges as have been lately granted to the English and Scotch.—(Cheers.) That the supreme legislature of the country, upon the question of the Irish Church, had the power to appropriate any surplus arising from the revenues of that Church to other than ecclesiastical purposes, it was absurd to deny. He had supported, and would continue to support, that measure which applied such surplus to the purposes of ge neral education.—(Cheers.) Upon the subject of Church rates, he himself was a Churchman, but he should be pre pared, from principle, to vote for their total abolition. The Hon. Gentleman sat down amidst continued cheers. Colonel DAVIES, upon presenting himself to the meeting, was received with loud cheers, which lasted for some time. They had met there that day to give a practical denial to the broad assertion that had gone forth, that there was a re-action among the operatives of Worcester in favour of Toryism.—(Cheers.) When he looked around him and saw that large building crammed to excess—when he was aware that many hundreds more would have been present bad there been room—when he witnessed that immense assemblage, he was astonished that any one could have asserted that there was a re-action.—(Cheers.) A re action indeed ! he only wished that the Tory party could witness that meeting, and it would at once demonstrate to them that in the bosoms of the citizens of Worcester there still was an ardent and patriotic desire for Reform.—(Cheers.) A spirit was abroad, and men would no longer take anything for granted b ecause G o ve r nment had willed it. They migh t as well attempt to throw back the source of their noble river as to stem the tide of public opinion.—( Cheers.) The House of Lords had acted a part ill becoming them, and prejudicial to themselves and the country.—(Cheers.) They had rejected every measure sent up by the House of Com mons that tended to benefit the country. The House of Lords were disposed to cut -off root and branch of the Irish Corporations, and leave that country without any Corpora tions at all. The resistance of the House of Lords to the appropriation clause ought to leave a blush of shame upon their cheeks.--(Cheers.) He was a sincere Protestant, and he hoped to die so, and he would not support any measure that would injure the Protestant Church ; but he considered that the appropriation clause, so far from injuring the Pro testant religion, would have a tendency to promote it. They said the Irish people were bigotted from ignorance. If so, they should be instructed ; they would then see, and be enabled better to judge, which religion they would adopt. The Tory party had kept them in greater darkness than any other. The Lords had pursued a line calculated to injure themselves and the country, but the people of Eng land were no longer disposed to submit to it. No, the people of England would rise as one man, and break the bonds by which the Lords would enthral them.—(Cheers.) He was aware that be was touching upon tender ground when he spoke of a reform in the House of Lords.—(Cheers.) That was a subject upon which there was a difference of opinion, and he should not then enter into a discussion upon it. He however would say that, in the present state of society, he much doubted whether such an organic change could be made without a convulsion throughout the empire. The people, however, had the remedy in their own bands, as the House of Lords looked to,the extent of the majority in the House of Commons. If they wished for good Government they must send liberal men to Parliament. If they wished to sec the grievances of the Dissenters removed—if they wished to see justice done to Ireland, and the Irish people contented and happy, they must return liberal men to Par liament. If the electors did their duty, the victory would be gained.—(Loud cheers.) The MAYOR proposed the health of the three Liberal Members of the county, who had ever been at their posts in the hour of difficulty and danger, and faithful ever among the faithless found.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. COOKES, M.P., retuned thanks. After adverting to the proceedings of the House of Lords during the last Session, he said that the cry was, reform the Lords. And though he could not sec how a responsible Chamber could go on with an irrespcnsible one, yet he could not perceive how the evil could be remedied. He recommended them to back their wishes by petitions, and the Lords must yield. Capt. WINNINGTON and Mr. HAMMOND, the other Mem bers for Worcester, returned thanks. A variety of other toasts were drank, and numerous speeches made, and the meeting separated at a late hour, greatly pleased with the proceedings of the day. A me2tina of several gentlemen of this city and _ _ ne:glacourhood - was held yesterday to take into considera tion the utility and practicability of the Railway scheme from Hull to Lincoln, and thence to Nottingham, when measures were idopted highly favourable to the undertaking, and it was determined to call a public meeting upon the subject so soon as the requisite information in detail can be laid befo;.e them. Among the, gentlemen present were the Mayo',• of the city, Sir F. E. Bromhead, Bart., Stapylton Smith, Esq., the High Steward, R. Mason, Esq., Town Clerk, Dr. Beaty, T. Merrywtather, Esq., E. Fowler, Esq., Messrs. Williams, Wetherell, Blyth, &c.—Lincoln Gazelle. LONDON AND PARIS PAPERS.—The London newspaper press, daily and weekly, is conducted with great talent. The " journalism," to use once more Sir Robert Peel's favourite expression when speakieg of newspapers— tle Journalism of no other part of the world displays equal ability. The Gazelle de France, and two or three others of the Paris papers, are perhaps conducted with as much talent as any of the London journals ; but taken as a whole, they are much inferior to the English metropolitan press. 4:ts regards thc,. , general character and size of the newspapers of the two countries, the superiority of the English to the French is immeasurable. A French journal contains no accounts, worthy of the name, of the proceedings at public meetings, in courts of law, or at other places. Numerous circumstances of importance are hourly occurring in Paris, and throughout France, of which no notice is taken in the newspapers. There is no such thing as general intelligence in the French journals ; and the debates in the Chambers are given so briefly that one reporter might do all the duties of that department of the paper himself. An editor's la bour in gettini , up a French journal, is mere amusement compared with' that of the editor of a London paper in pre paring it for publication. With respect to the size, again, the French papers look absolutely pitiful by the side of the London-journals. Those who have seen an English paper sixty or seventy years back, will have a very good notion of the appearance of a French paper of the present day. There is at least six times as much matter in a London newspaper as there is in,One of the Paris journals.—The Great Me tropolis. " The present volume of Mr. Bentley's Standard Novels,' " observes the Spectator, " contains that capital sketch of Oriental manners and Persian history, Zobrab the Hostage,' and forms—what does the reader think ? the fifty-finirth number ! and some, as in the case of Beckfcrd's Vathek,' containing three works. By the beard of Aristotle, father of criticism, the fact is a bib liopolic wonder ! Whatever our age may be in other respects, who can deny that it is rich in prose fiction ? Nearly sixty novels, published at a cheap rate in a uniform shape, and all stamped with marks of public approval before they appear in the collection. What an encyclop-ndia of interest and amusement ! What a galaxy of famous names, both of past and present time !—Horace Walpole, Godwin, Inchbald, Porter, Lee, Galt, Austen, De Stael, Theodore Hook, Cooper and Buhver, Mrs. Shelley and Mrs. Gore ; and last, not least, Washington Irving! What a library even for a circumnavigation, or a winter or two in the Polar regions !" The intelligence from Naples confirms the audacious attempt of Miss Penelope Smith, who has entreated the Prince of Capua to crown her Queen of Sicily. It wa s rumoured that M. d'Houdetot, the King's aide-de-camp, had been ordered this morning to set out in all haste for Naples. The General was at a quarter to two at the Mi nistry of Marine, regulating the departure of several vessels intended to reinforce our naval station on the coast of Si cily.—Bon Sens. A most important improvement has been effected in the harp, by which all performers on that fascinating in strument will be enabled to produce, with great facility, the harmonic sounds and effects on any portion of the strings at their pleasure. This desideratum with all amateurs will enable them to execute even whole pieces, if they wish, in those delightful sounds, and will not prevent the harp from being played in every manner which is in use at present. The Sentinelle Picarde, in an account of the late escape of the 13 political prisoners from Doulens, gives the following additional circumstances :—" M. Reverchon bad the misfortune to break his thigh in falling from the wall, and M. Desvoix lamed himself by injuring his heel. M .Caussidiere might have effected his escape, but remained m order to assist his two unfortunate companions. Messrs. Baune and Beaumont, in spite of all solicitations, refused to make the attempt."

FIFTH EDITION.—NOW READY. THE LORDS, THE GOVERNMENT, AND THE COUNTRY. By HENRY L. BULWER, Esq., M.P. Author of " France, Social, Literary and Political," " The Mo narchy of the Middle Classes," &c. Saunders and Otley, Conduit-street. HAMBURG, SEPT. 28, 1836. OUR Friends, and all those who may have to write to us, are requested to be particular in directing, HEINE BROTHERS, in HAMBURGH, and to observe, that a letter with one inclosure doubles the Postage only, but several inclosures would by far increase the same. Thus 101., 201., or 301., for instance, if remitted in One Bank of Eng land Note would only cause double Postage, but 101. remitted in two notes, would be liable to a much higher charge. It is there fore most advisable, for any Person having to remit Money to Ham burgh, to forward the amount in One Note; or having to receive Money from Hamburgh, to receive the same in One Note, when ever possible. Of course remittances from Hamburgh to England, surpassing the usual amount of One Bank of England Note, may rather be made in Bills of Exchange, on London. To save expenses that may as well be avoided, we request our Correspondents not to overlook these particulars. HEINE BROTHERS. The publication of THE SUN NEWSPAPER commenced this day at 10 minutes past Three o'clock. ticr x2ol, ,, ~Awe., i;t l ,12,' f LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 27, 1836, The French Papers of Tuesday contain no news of any political importance. The elevation of the Luxor Obelisk was effected without any accident on Tuesday, in the presence of the KING, and the principal members of the Royal family. His MAJESTY was tolerable well received by his loving subjects, whom, however, he took care to keep at a respectful distance from his sacred person. There was no regicidal pistol-practice on this occasion. The Moniteur contains two Royal Ordinances. The one referring to a new arrangement in the judicial sys tcm established in the French colonies of Africa ; tl►e other fixing the amount of salaries to be received by the Prefects of the different departments throughout France. • We find in these Journals no intelligence of any importance from Switzerland or Spain. The following are ex PARIS, OCT. 2.5.—Tw0 honourable merchants of the capital, who have extensive commercial and banking tran sactions with Switzerland, after a conference at the Hotel of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, have just received in structions to proceed to Berne. It is presumed, from the mercantile character of these two persons, that more serious difficulties than were anticipated have arisen in the con:- mission, and that it is intended to make an appeal to na tional interests, in order to modify the question of national honour and independence, which the patriotism of certain members desires to make the most prominent. The Charges d'Affaires of Holland and Switzerland have had fresh conferences with M. Mole, and it was after these visits that the two French merchants received their instruc tions and their passports. It seems that each Minister thinks to have an agent in Switzerland. All transact busi ness separately : each desires to be sufficiently informed, to follow up discussion with his Majesty. The Papin steam-boat arrived on the 16th at Algiers with Lieut.-General Davremont and M. de Rancti, Aid de-camp to Marshal Clausel. Lieut.-General Davremont," says the Semaphore, " had immediately a conference with Marshal Clausel, who does not seem in the least disposed to leave the colony. Thus all the reports respecting the mission of M. de Rance fall to the ground. The importance of it seems to have been exaggerated by everybody, and by the Ministerial journals themselves. The preparations for the expedition to Constantina are prosecuted with great vigour." We feel pleasure in giving the news. We should have regretted to see Marshal Clausel leave the post which he fills to the great satisfaction of the real friends of Coloniza tion in Africa, whatever confidence may be placed on the successor who was designated."—Journal du Commerce ; Oct. 25.

Not a word do they add to what has already appeared in the London journals on the subject of the war, or the exploits of the armies. The following article, from the Espagnol of the 17th, on the Rege nc y quest i on , is all that we find w orth extracting from their co- lumns : " The Cortes are about to open. Convoked at so cri tical a moment, and composed of Deputies whose opinions THURSDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1836. are not very well known, the anxiety and doubt are the greater as to the spirit which will guide them, and the measures they may adopt. A vital question will occupy the fiat sittings of the Assembly ; and the manner in which this is resolved will make it appear whether the new Procuradores fully comprehend their mission. They are obliged by the law to settle the ; Regency, which is to last during all the minority of the young Queen. Will the Assembly ratify the voice of the nation in con tinuing to entrust the regency to the Queen who has hitherto wielded it ? 'We do not lightly start so grave a question ; but a periodical, some time since talked of, named co-Regents with Christina. If the will of the Spanish nation is known on any one point, it is clear in its fidelity and attachment to Christina, even before the death of Ferdinand. This, indeed, is so clear that the promoters of the idea of co-Regents admit it. But they add, that her Majesty is exposed to insidious counsels from bad advisers, who deceive and lead astray her undoubted patriotism ? But, we ask, will the possi bility of this be lesEsened by the appointment of a co-re gent ? Will the new regents be exempt from human frailty ? Will they be insensible to ambition, which can not stimulate the elevated Christina ? The representa tive system, in our opinion, offers, on the responsibility of Ministers, the best remedy against the evil above com plained of. A reformed Constitution, and legal order, will prove the best guard against counter-revolution. It would be a bad mode of putting an end to our present misery to open the sphere of private ambition, and place individuals on the very steps of the throne. For if Ministerial power be so coveted as to be the object of such intrigues, such rancour, such dissen s ions, how much more of these evils would aris e were a porti on of the sovereign power opened to the am bitious ? History presents terrible examples of struggles for power during a Royal minority ; let us not increase the number of these examples. Not to dwell upon its obvious effects in domestic police, how would the nomination of co regents complicate our ',foreign relations? What effect would it have on the Quadruple Alliance, and upon each of its members ? Let us, by avoiding such complications, secure the efficacious co-operation that has been promised to us. But the representatives of the nation will not be blind to reasons so obvious and so strong ; they will pre serve the reins of government in the hands of her whom an enthusiastic people called their mother; nor will they set aside the example of moderation given by the French n 1830. The German Papers, received this morning, contain advices from Berlin, to the effect that a rupture was breaking out between Russia and Prussia. The Rus sian authorities, it is alleged, have prohibited Prussian subjects from crossing the frontier, and some who un consciously disobeyed this injunction have been seiced, their goods confiscated, and are now on their way to Siberia. We vouch not for the authenticity of such rumours. The following article, however, which we copy from the German Courier, evinces such an anxiety with regard to Russian policy, and is, upon the whole, so hostile to the designs of that Power by the prema tureness of its exposures, that we can only account for its appearance by assuming that some of the German States are not on the best terms with the CZAR. It well deserves the attention of our countrymen : " Whilst the west of Europe directs its whole attention to the operations of Russia, that of the Cabinet of St. Pe tersburg appears for the moment exclusively directed to the East. The plan of sooner or later incorporating the Otto man empire with Russia is said to have been entirely aban doned for the gigantic but more sure project of extending Russian domination to the centre of commerce. A Russian State functionary is reported to have some years ago ad dressed a remarkable memorial to the Emperor on the subject of the futility and the danger to Russia of any at tempt to conquer Constantinople, as even were such an attempt successful, the relations between that capital and other European States, and the circumstance that the former would be exposed to continual attacks from the maritime Powers, would lead to the necessity of adopting a line of policy which must in the end divide the Russian empire, and deprive it of the fruit of its conquests. The memorial in question also represented that the possession of Constantino ple would divert Russia from the task of extending her farces and her territory, so as to attain the dominion of Asia and the possession of India. ' After the conquest of Constan tinople,' says the Memorial, Russia would be continually at war with France,' England, and Austria, who would follow her operations step by step, and dispute with her every important point ; but she would be placed in a much more favourable position were she to direct her efforts at once against India, and thus succeed in giving strength and grandeur to her power a:.d dominion. In this career no other Power would be able to follow her, and her object once gained, she would only have to engage in a war with England, the issue of which could not be doubtful, to have in her own hands the destinies and the commerce of the world. As the means of attaining this object, the author of the Memorial has pointed out the possession of the shores of the Caspian Sea and the Ravines of the Caucasus, and a decided preponderance in the affairs of Persia. The new aspect thus given to the policy of Russia explains several diplomatic acts of the present day. The Porte seems already to have a presentiment of passing events in Russia, and keeps. an uneasy eye upon its Asiatic possession!, which could not, in the hour of danger, be defended like European Turkey by its allies." rsEI.GI AN 1.

The Reform dinner at Worcester; on Monday last, at which upwards of seven hundred and fifty Reformers were present, and for which, as the Chairman ob served, fifteen hundred tickets were disposed of, is a triumphant answer to those who assert that there is a re-action in favour of Toryism. We did not need this additional testimony, but it is as well we have been furnished with it ; for it will put an effectual stop to the cackle of even the most prejudiced Conserva tives, who will henceforth see that not a chance is left them. But it is not mere numbers that we so much regard at the Worcester meeting, as the determined spirit that prevailed at it. All who spoke, spoke the language of zealous Reformers. There was no at tempt at flinching ; no resort to vague generalities— such as the Tories are constantly compelled to have recourse to, when they touch upon the ungracious topic of Reform—the sentiments were in strict har mony with those entertained by the great mass of the community. We should certainly have been better pleased, had Mr. R °Jai NSON been more decided on the question of the . ballot ; but this is not so immediately pressing as that paramount one of—" What shall we do with the Lords ?"—and on this branch of his subject, Mr. ROBINSON disburdened himself of a great deal of Taluable indignation. He expressed his opinions of their Lordships in just such bold, indignant terms as these Aristocratic Incapables deserve ; and called on the people to express theirs in a similarly unequivocal spirit. This is precisely what, at the present crisis, we desire to meet with in our Reform Members. We desire that they should give their deliberate sanction to the popular opinion, respecting the incorrigible Noodle-ism of the House of Lords, knowing that the grievance of such an incompetent, irresponsible Insitu tion, being once formally recognized by those who from rank, situation, and circumstances, are every way qua lified to form a correct estimate, the remedy will follow as a matter of course. The Conservatives of Leeds gave what our fashion able Morning Contemporarythe i P o st callsa"g E r T and dinner" to their representative sr JOHN BEcK r, on Monday last. Before the cloth was removed the wine drank must have been immense—if we may be permitted to draw an inference from the ordinary effect of wine upon the wit, the judgment, and the talka tiveness of after-dinner orators. Poor Sir JOHN talked three columns and upwards of such trash as, in the words of a humourous Irishman, would have " disgraced the intellect of a sucking-tur key." The Right Hon. Gentleman commenced with lauding the Conservative Members of the House of Commons, for having redeemed their pledges to their Constituents. We are old enough to remember when Toryism, ashamed to show its face in the land, assumed the alias of Conservatism ; and we likewise remember that it was the peculiar boast of its renegade supporters that its representatives spurned the idea of giving pledges—that its friends never exacted any. How then could the Conservative Members rise in the estimation of Englishmen by redeeming pledges which they boasted they never gave ? To exact pledges is, according to the Tory organs, a disgraceful radical innovation. Sir JOHN tells the Conservatives of Leeds that ,the country prizes highly the redemp tion of such pledges, and by implication, that the country does now, and will exact them. Does not this prove one of two things—namely, that the Right Hon. Gentleman did not know well what he was saying ; or that the great bulk of the electors are Radicals— Whigs ? Could we but place reliance in the truth of one de claration of the Right Hon. Member for Leeds, we should rather assist in forwarding than in oppos ing the establishment of Conservative Associations throughout the country. " The Operative Conser vative Associations," said the Right Honourable Gentleman " will go on as they have begun. They will establish among themselves a system of high moral conduct, without which feeling is as nought ; and they will, as heretofore, continue to devote a portion of their time and their labour to sup port the institutions of the State, and disseminate the truths of our pure religion." We protest we like this mightily ; but we were not before aware of the mis sionary appointment of the Conservatives. Of course, Bishop PHILPOTTS has laid his hands upon them, so that we can have no doubt as to the colour of the spirit with which they are imbued. The Conser vatives, in fact, are the Templars and Hospitallers of Protestantism, as their semi-sacerdotal architypes were the crutches of enfeebled Popery. We lament, however, to learn from so respectable an authority upon this sub jectas Sir JOHN BECKETT, that the system of " high moral conduct" which the operative Conservatives are establishing is confined to themselves, and is not to extend to their leaders in either House of Parliament. We wish their influence could be made to extend to Lords LYNDHURST and Co., whose leisure, we are sorry to, say, is devoted to something else than the dissemination of religious truths. As the Right Ho nourable Baronet warmed with his subject, he fell foul of the Government, which he declared to be one of the paltriest and wickedest that ever existed. It had all but destroyed the Constitution, root and branch—for it had actually ousted MAN NERS SUTTON from the Speaker's Chair, and prevented the KING from appearing in Russia, in the person of that most noble pink of diplomacy, the Mar quis of LONDONDERRY I The audience was hor rified, as well it might, at such an awful charge against the Whigs. It was clear to every Tory understand ing that the pillars of our happy Constitution in Church and State, were tottering to their fall ; that Protestantism was at her last gasp, and would die of the terrors of a Popish nightmare, unless the Whigs could be driven from the Ministerial Benches. From the Government to Mr. O'CONNELL the transition was, of course, natural. In reference to the Carlow Election transaction, Sir JOHN BECKETT declared that if a Conservative had been guilty of such an act as Mr. O'CONNELL was charged with, he would have been sent to Newgate I Whose fault was it, Sir JOHN, that Mr. O'CONNELL was not sent to Newgate? Not the fault of the Whigs and Radicals certainly, for they were the minority in the Committee, whose Report. acquitted the Hon. and Learned Gentleman of all culpability in the transaction. But we presume Sir JOHN'S observation has no reference whatever to the merits of the particular case. What the Right Hon. Gentleman most probably means to have inferred is, that were a Conservative accused of such a transac tion the Whigs would pack the Committee, and, con trary to the O'CONNELL case, justice would be de nied to the luckless Conservative wight placed in such a predicament. The other political speech-makers during the even ing were a Mr. C. HILL, who had the honour to act as Vice-Chairman, Mr. WORTLEY, Mr. BETHELL, M.P., Mr. GASKELL, M.P., the Hon. JAMES STUART WORTLEY, M.P., and the Hon. W. S. LASCELLES. Mr. HILL lauded the ability of all Conservative Members of Parliament _past, present, and future—but particularly the Right Hon. Member for Leeds. Mr. WORTLEY wisely confined himself to the meridian of Yorkshire, which he assured his friends was the finest soil in the world for the growth of Conservatism ; and such was his zeal for the cause, that he •was ready to take a seat any day in the House of Commons, if they would only elect him. This announcement was received in profound silence, which was slightly interrupted by a low whistle from a gentle man in a remote corner of the room. Mr. BETHELL, M.P., contented himself with praising the bril liancy of a Leeds festival, and accordingly his speech was the most sensible of any delivered dur ing the evening. Mr. GASKELL, 1V1.P., opened his speech with O'CONNELL, and the subject was not exhausted when the impatience of his auditory forced him to sit down. The other speeches may be dis missed in a sentence. They are, from first to last, one tissue of nonsense, and absurdity. Upon the whole the Leeds gathering was a decided failure. The prin cipal speakers fumed, and raved, and abused the Go vernment ; but they evidently felt that the game of Toryism was all up with them—that they might hope to embarrass, but could never hope. to become the Go vernment. of tb The conduct of the Tories puts us in min which is attributed to the crew of a ship, when they have lost all hope of saving their lives. Seeing nothing but certain destruction before them, they rush to the spirit-room, and drown the consciousness of their un happy situation in the stupefaction of intoxication. So is it with " those of the adverse faction." There never was a time when their affairs as a party were in so desperate a state, and never did they carry the re galing system to so extravagant a pitch as at the pre sent moment. Feed follows feed, with breathless haste—one debauch treads upon the heels of another, as if to drown care was the only consolation left for those unfortunnte scape-graces. To what excess they carry this, their now favourite practice of steeping the senses in forgetfulness, we want no surer criterion of judging than the immense quantities of ineffable nonsense hiccuped up on these occasions. We have before us a notable example of this Tory re-action, bless the mark I in a guzzle held at Maldon in Essex, by a few scores of riffraff Blues, in the interest of that long-eared patriot, Mr. QUIN.. TIN DICK. The effects of the stimulants imbibed became perceptible at a very early period of the even ing. When the health of the Princess VICTORIA was drank, it was coupled with a wish that she might ever remember the principles which seated the House of BRUNSWICK on the throne. Now, nothing can be more preposterously ridiculous than such a toast in the mouth of a Tory, inasmuch as the House of BRUNS WICK was seated on the throne in direct opposition to the principles, and in spite of the treasonable machina tions, of the Tories, who, not content with doing all in their power to prevent the succession of the BRUNS WICK line, actually raised two rebellions to dethrone two successive Princes of that illustrious House So much for Tory loyalty to the House of BRUNSWICK. We may also remark, that one of the principles of which this meeting reminds the PRINCESS is triennial Parliaments. Is this altogether to the taste of the Tories ? We apprehend not. Indeed, we are sure that if she were to sanction the re-introduction of such a principle into the Constitution, the Tories wculd all unite in one yell, that she had forgotten, instead of THE SUN , LUND - ____ ..........._,....._. remembered, the principles which seated her family on in his pocket.

There must be some mystery in this. The rest of Mr. DlcK's harangue was nothing but a long extract from a very simple speech of Mr. BUCKINGHAM'S, and therefore well adapted to the capacity of the audience to whom it was delivered.

Jane Thompson, aias Nutt, 43, was indicted for stealing a sheet, pair of trowsers, and pillow, value 75., the property of Thomas Godwin. The prisoner lodged in the p rosecutor's house at Wal worth, and it was ascertained that she had pledged the articles in question at a pawnbroker's shop in the neigh bourhood. —Guilty. The prisoner was again indict ed for stealing a sheet, and pair of trowsers, the property of William Latham. The prosecutor keeps a public house in Holborn, and on the 23d September the prisoner came in and called for some ale. She remained for som e time in the house, and on leaving it was discovered that she had carried off the articles in question, which were traced to a pawnbroker's shop in Gray's-inn-lane, where she haci pledged them. Guilty. The Learned RECORDER sentenced her to twelve months' imprisonment in the House of Correction fo r the county of Surrey. John Smith, aged 21, and James Williams, aged 18, were indicted for stealing a pair of shoes, value 55., tt , e property of Edward Rowel. Policeman, M 25, was on duty in High-street, Borough, on the evening of the 10th of October, and saw the two prisoners standing together. The prisoner Willis ins then approached the shop of the prosecutor, jumped up, and car ried off a pair of shoes which were hanging at the. door. Both the prisoners then ran down Fishmongers'-alley, and, when taken into custody, a shoe was found apon the p erson of each. They were identified as the property of the pro secutor.—Guilty. The prisoners were again charged with having been con', victed, at the last July sessio ns for the count y of Surrey, 01 CITY REGISTRATION OF VOTERS (THIS DAY.) At the sitting of the Court this morning Mr. CRAIG pro flounced the following judgment PARISH OF ST. ANN, BLACKFRIARS—ROBERT ALLEN'S CASE. In this case the name of Robert Allen was objected to by Mr. RODGERS. The only parts of his qualification upon which questions arise are the rating and the payment of the rates. It appears that the house occupied by Robert Allen, and in respect of which his name has been inserted in the list of voters, is one of a considerable number belonging to the Rev. Henry Handley Norris. Four rates have been made in this parish during the year to which our inquiries relate; the first of these was made in October, 1835. For some years pre viously to that time Mr. Norris was alone rated for the houses of which that occupied by Robert Allen is one, and that in 1828, Mr. Norris being then rated for some of his houses, but not for all, a letter was addressed by his agent, Mr. Hood, to the " church-wardens, overseers, and inhabitants of the parish of St. Ann, Blackfriars, in vestry assembled, proposing, on the part of Mr. Norris, that a reduction should be made in the quarterly rate, upon the terms of his " engaging to pay future assessments on the whole of the said houses, whether occupied or empty, as a customary mode adopted in other parishes ;" and " that the property be rated at Is. in the pound." Mr. Pritchard, the vestry-clerk of the parish, re ceived this letter. It appears that it was not laid before the vestry, but that, in consequence of Mr. Pritchard's suggestion, the parish officers rated Mr. Norris's houses at Is. in the pound, and they have ever since continued to rate. them in the same manner. No written acceptance of the proposal contained in Mr. Hood's letter appears to have taken place ; but I under stand that that proposal has been acted upon by the successive parochial authorities ; and it may, for the present purposes at least, be considered as an agreement between Mr. Norris and the parish. The poor-rates in this parish, which in the year 1828 exceeded Is. in the pound, have for some time past been below that amount. I find that in the rate made in July, 1835, which immediately preceded the rate of October, 1835, the assessment for this house stood thus : Jackson's-court, No. 12, Rev. H. H. Norris ; premises, dwelling-house ; annual value, 121. ; assessments, 121. In the rate of October, 1835, however, the particulars of this pro perty are as follows :—Jackson's. court, date of collection, 30th November; amount collected, 9/. ; name of occupier, Robert Allen; name of landlord, Rev. Henry Handley Nor ris ; premises, dwelling-house ; annual value, 121. ; assess ment, 91. The title of the rate does not contain any de scription of the persons upon whom it is made, such as occupiers, &c. All the rates since the October rate have been in the same form. Mr. Pritchard thinks he must have inserted the name of Robert Allen in the rate book, in consequence of desire on Allen's part communicated to him (Mr. Pritchard), or his clerk through the parish beadle ; that officer, however, does not confirm Mr. Pritchard's impression ; and there is no sufficient evidence of any claim to be rated having been made by or on behalf of Robert Allen. The rates have all been paid to the parish by Mr. Norris through his agent. and never by Robert Allen personally ; such of them as became payable previously to the 6th of April were discharged before the 20th of July. It is to be observed that there is in this parish no local act authorising the parish to rate the landlord. Under these circumstances, the questions are, whether Ro bert Allen has been rated in respect of this house to all rates made for the relief of the poor during the necessary year, and whether he has in due time paid all the rates, which became payable from him before the 6th day of April last. The question, who is rated, in other words, who is the per son upon whom the assessment has in the present instance been legally imposed or charged, is one which must be determined by the rate-book itself, considered with reference to the law, under the authority of which the rate-book has been made. That law is the statute of the 43d of Elizabeth, uncontrolled by any local or general act. I turn to that statute, and I find that it directs the necessary amount to be raised by taxing the occupier. It refers, then, to that part of the present rate-book which is the subject of our present inquiry ; and I find, first, the name of the occupier, then the name of the landlord, then the description of the property, the estimated annual • rental, and the amount charged. Upon looking at this rate-book therefore, made as it is, in professed compliance with the law which directs the occupier to be rated, it appears to me impossible to say that the occupier is not rated. Whether the additional mention of the name of the landlord in the rate-book constitutes a rating of him also, it does not appear necessary for me to attempt to decide. ( Mr. Craig then cited several cases in support of his judgment.) For the reasons which I have given, lam of opi nion that Robert Allen is duly rated to the relief of the poor in respect of the premises in question within the meaning of the Reform Act. Upon the only other question, namely, whether the fact of the payment having been made by the landlord destroys the vote, it will be necessary to say very few words, be cause the question has already been frequently before me. It is to be observed, that in the present instance the full amount of the assessment has been paid by the land lord. I am clearly of opinion, and I believe I have in this respect the concurrence of almost all of the revising barristers, that the payment by the landlord must be deemed in law, the payment by the tenant ; this view of the case is supported by the decisions which were made upon the question of settlement of paupers by rating and payment, and also by obvious reasons, one of which is that a tenant who had agreed with his landlord to give him an additional rent in consideration of the landlord paying the rates, would otherwise have to pay twice over, once to the overseers, and once in the shape of additional rent to the landlord. The case of Rex v. Cozens, Douglas 426, may be men tioned as sufficient to prove that after payment by the landlord the parish would have no further demand upon the occupier. I shall therefore retain the name of Robert Allen upon the list. It is said that this decision gives 50 votes in favour of the Reformers. felony. The record of the former conviction was put in, and the identity of the prisoners proved.—Guilty. The Learned RECORDER observed that the Court was empowered to send the prisoners out of the country for life, they having been previously convicted of felony. lie would not, however, go to the full extent of the punishmen t authorized by the law, and the sentence of the Court was, that they be severally transported for seven years. Susan Eustace, aged 48, was indicted for .stealing a smock-frock, value 35., the property of David Hopkins .--- Guilty. There was another indictment against the prisoner, which was not proceeded upon, and the Jury, having necom mended her to mercy, she was sentenced to one mu•nth'S imprisonment. IVilliant Turley, 16, was indicted for stealing a parasol and waistcoat, value 55., the property of Thomas Turley, his father. It appeared from the evidence of the father, who gave, his evidence with great relucta nce, that the p risoner had stolen the articles in question from his house and pawned them. He had had him sent to the House of Correction for a fortnight for misconduct on a previous occasion.-- uilty. The prisoner was sentenced to three months imprison' ment, and the Recorder intimated that if he was again brought before him, he should send him out of the c ountry for life. Mary Browne, 37, was indicted for stealing wo yards of carpeting, value 65., from the shop of William ISolkton.' Guilty. Tho prisoner, who had been previously convicted of sL'enl ing from the same shop, was sentenced to six months' int' prisonment. Jeremiah Carter, 65 , was indicted for stea lin g a pair of boots, value 1.05., the property of Richard Frazer, of South Herefordshire. —Guilty. The prisoner had been convicted of felony at the las t October Quarter Sessions for Hereford, in the year 18 34 t and was now sentenced to nine months' imprisonment. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS-THIS DA COUNTY DAY. A meeting of the Magistrates was held to-day at twelve' o clock, for the purpose of considering the various matters relating to the general business of the county. The Minutes of the last Court were read, and the Re: port of the Committee for General Purposes was received, and the account ordered to be paid. The CHAIRMAN (Mr. Sergeant Adams having temp o s rarity vacated the Chair) said the next busine ss on th paper, was to fix the days at which the Sessions for 1 83 ? were to be held. He said at present the C ourt sat le forty-eight weeks out of the fifty-two, from the roa n ' ner in which the days of sitting were spre ad ove r ; He did not see the necessity for this, which ge" much trouble and inconvenience to Juries, to flee Maw; strates, and to himself, especially as it gave no con voice% to the public. From the great increase of c rime it v`ris necessary that there should still be twelve gene ral gaol ue; liveries, the same as the Central Criminal Cour t.—(He•lr. He had found that Monday was the most inconvenient da for beginning the Sessions, not only to Juries but to Me' gistrates, it being the - general market-day ; :he would there" fore propose that in future they should begin on the Teel : days, according to a printed list which would be distribute d He would also propose that the appeal - day a nd the e the journment-day should be held in the same w eek as county-day. This arrangement, he thought, would be ec; I : ducive to the convenience of the Bench, the Bar, and Gentlemen of the Jury. The plan was warmly supported by Mr. Laurie, Mr. Hughes, Mr. M` William, and Mr. Pownall, and was t 103".. mously are to. It was g or e de d red that 250 copies of the Registry for the county should be printed, and sold at 2s. 6d. each. The next business on the list was the malting of a coun t y rate.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT (THIS DAT.) OLD COURT. William Adams, aged 24, was indicted with burglariously entering the dwelling-house of Frederick Macmain, on the night of the sth of the present month, with intent to steal. Mrs. Elizabeth Macmain stated that her husband kept a lady's shoe-warehouse at 32, Poland-street, Oxford-street. On the night of the sth of October, about eight o'clock in the evening, she was sitting in the kitchen, when she heard a noise in the passage. She turned round, and discovered that the parlour door had been locked and the key taken out. Shortly afterwards witness heard a dreadful noise up stairs. She immediately ran there with a candle in her hand, and saw the prisoner go between the parlour and the street-door. The parlour door was then open, and the prisoner rushed past her, and shut the door in her face. Witness followed him, calling out " Stop thief," and ulti mately he was secured by a police-constable. Witness was sure the prisoner was the man. Mr. PHILLIPS, who appeared for the prisoner, sharply cross-examined the witness as to the prisoner's identity, but she still persisted in the prisoner being the man. Other witnesses stated they believed the prisoner to be the man, among whom was a little boy, who had taken some clothes to the house of Mrs. Macmain, who met the prisoner coming out of the house. The Jury, under the Learned Judge's direction, acquitted the prisoner. William Bell, 24, and Ambrose Elms, 23, were indicted for assaulting William Stavens on the 24th of September, and taking from him 18s., his property. Stavens stated that he was going along the Whitechapel road on the 24th of September, about half-past one o'clock in the morning, and upon coming near the workhouse he was surrounded by five men, who tied his arms, and took from him 18s. ; three of the men ran off, and the two pri soners at the bar he gave in charge. The prisoner Bell was the one who put his hand into his pockets and took the money. Cross-examined by Mr. PHILLIPS, who appeared for Elms —Was very much frightened when he was robbed, but was positive that the prisoners were two of the men. The police-constable who took the prisoner into custody on searching Bell found only ls. 6d. in his pockets. He said to witness it will go hard with me, because you bad me before for attempting to pick a gentleman's pocket. Another policeman, who searched Elms, found only 4d. 11 34 1 0% ~~
